  1. Try this:

    Bare in mind, if you use a courier like FedEx or UPS etc you will also be charged "fees".

    Notes on duty & taxes rates and compliance

    • Camera has an import duty rate of 3% and VAT rate of 7%, Interior Tax rate is 0%, Surcharge rate is 0% .
    • Restrictions will apply for shipping this product with courier or postal companies [High probability].Packaging and labelling requirements apply to Lithium batteries whether they are contained in the equipment or sent separately from the device. Please, contact your courier for more information. If the product has dual-use, an Export Control Classification Number (ECCN) is required [some probability].
  2. I think a lot of the Thai issues in delivering is down to the crazy addressing system. I wouldnt want to try to deliver things as there is no logical sequence.

    As an example, in the UK, mostly, you have even numbers on one side, odd on the opposite, and they rise in sequence in the street.

    Out here in the sticks, I would imagine it could take half a day to try and find the correct house. In my soi alone, there is no logical order, when we built our house we were told to look at a book and choose a number not yet taken ??? as an example #8 is next door to #35, and the same soi no. is used in 3 parts of the village. Deliveries have to telephone and are usually met on a motorcycle on the outskirts and guided in

    When we lived in the city, we had to draw maps, or go meet deliveries at a local point and guide them in, postman had no chance as they are numbered totally randomly.

    For that reason, I have always used a mailbox at the local Post Office, never ever miss anything or had anything go astray again. for 500 baht a year its a great comfort. I just have to go check the box myself which is no big deal.

    Go take a walk and look around you, see if you are lucky and the numbering system makes sense, I'd be surprised if it does.

    My bank wont send stuff to my PO box because (theoretically) no one there can sign for it.

    If you explain its an "in house post office" box and therefore manned by PO employess, not an "unmanned hole in the wall" that usually changes the situation. smile.png

  5. You get what you pay for.

    10 of the "same" is not exactly true if they are "tailored" there could be 10 variations in waist/length to start with, to say nothing of other measurements/requirements

    Almost impossible to answer correctly without full information.

    How many varying sizes, what material, lining, pockets, what design, when do you need them, are the 10 coming to be measured, and on and on it goes.

    It might also be an idea to tell people what area you are in ? not much point recommending someone in Bangkok if you are in Udon Thani.
